You may also be required to get your truck reweighed for the DMV so they can adjust your weight fee. Hummm .... better check that out too before you get to a state weigh station.
I personally think 3/4 ton and under should be considered non commercial and not subject to weight fees and commercial plates, BUT NO ! The state came up with the laws when trucks were trucks and used commercially. They got a windfall profit on the non commercial use of pickups and vans over the last 5 decades.
